Hugo Garay

Hugo Hernán Garay (born 1980-11-27 in Tigre, Buenos Aires) is a light heavyweight boxer from Argentina, who represented his native country at the 2000 Summer Olympics. There he was stopped in the first round of the men's light-heavyweight division (– 81 kg) by Kazakhstan's Olzhas Orazaliev.

A year earlier he won the bronze medal in the men's light-heavyweight category at the 1999 Pan American Games. Garay made his professional debut on 2001-07-14, defeating Abel Alejandro Rodríguez.

Garay was to fight champion Danny Green for the WBA Light Heavyweight Title on April 27, 2008 at Challenge Stadium in Perth, Australia. However, following the sudden retirement of Green in March of that year, Garay fought Yuri Barashian instead on July 3, 2008 in Buenos Aires for the vacant belt, winning via twelve-round unanimous decision.
